Later we're going to one of the most popular tourist destinations, Benidorm on the Costa Blanca
Benidorm is one of the biggest and most famous tourist destination in Spain. A giant rock that towers over the sea forms the symbolic centre of the bay. Inland the city is surrounded by tall mountains that protect it from any sudden wind or climate changes from the north. It's an exceptionally good geographical location which means it has a unique natural microclimate, characterized by a constant air and water temperature without any clouds. Thanks to these weather conditions Benidorm receives guests all year round. White sand, blue sea and sun throughout the year - what could be a better holiday location?
The majority of the streets in Benidorm have historical names such as Avenida Uruguay, Avenida del Mar Mediterráneo, and La Calle de Pekín. Along the beach there is a charming promenade with palm trees where you can sit down and relax in a cafe, pub or restaurant close to the beach.
